What “Race” was Jesus?
Paul Harvey at Religion Digest reacted t0 last year’s debate on how dark Jesus was by collecting some books about who he might have been, assuming he was.
Consider this the Black Santa/Jesus edition—one where Jesus could be red, white, black, brown, and often was a Socialist who gave away health care to people with pre-existing conditions. In fact, we’ll start with the radical historical (non-Christian) Jesus, and from there go sort of in reverse chronological order, in this tour of books that pave the way for 2014 and beyond.
